8. Thailand

If you’re looking to truly immerse yourself in a culture that’s wildly foreign in comparison to your everyday life, head to Thailand. To many, the biggest selling point for this trip — pun somewhat intended — is the fact that the cost of living in Thailand is unbelievably cheap. Your money will go a long way, which instantly alleviates so much vacation stress. For roughly the price of a meal for two at the Cheesecake Factory, you can live like an absolute king in Thailand — a life so good you can taste it. Sadly, that’s a feeling that most of us never get to experience. Hell, you can break the bank at a gas pump these days. Escape the monetary stressors of your day to day and enjoy all Thailand has to offer.
